Also, the radio simulcast has ended.

Radio 1 continues with instrumental music - Scott Mills just came on to announce there will be no chart show today, and the next news update will be at 5pm.

I don't know if it has been mentioned but the Grand National tomorrow will be broadcast on the main ITV channel.

Will they announce who was No.1 on BBC Radio 1, or will they postpone that will tomorrow?


Prince Philip has Died - WeArethelosers - 09-04-2021

Obit loop on Yesterday (probably the only one still showing the loop)


Prince Philip has Died - Josh - 09-04-2021

Newsround is live now with a special bulletin.

I wonder if CBeebies did something similar?

I'm surprised they're doing that as it's meant to be the Scottish Leaders debate that day so there will be an opt out by STV. I assume Emmerdale will be an hour on Tuesday as well.

I'm told the women's football will be on the Red Button, and BBC Four will broadcast a slate directing viewers there.

I imagine they won't announce it. Can anyone remember if they did in 1997?

Without venturing too much into radio on a TV presentation forum, it's quite interesting comparing how things were done in 1997 for Diana: http://andywalmsley.blogspot.com/2017/08/death-of-princess.html

Complete balls-up by BBC Radio Ulster: the on-air presenter took it upon himself to break the news (at 12:09), in a clear breach of the BBC's strict obit guidelines for a category 1 death, before opting into the News channel (or was it 5Live?) just seconds before the big red button was pressed in London and all the BBC's radio stations were recalled to Network for the official announcement by Tom Sanders. It has been known for quite some time what would happen on such an occasion, so there really is very little excuse for Ulster making such a hash of it. Sounded very messy.

I aint so sure about Red Button hosting the football, I think BBC four will host but halftime and full-time link to bbc one.

Scott Mills just did a brief link mentioning the lack of chart show.
Yes, just turned it on and I'm hearing an instrumental version of Coldplay's "Magic".
